Add text Programmatically

[MH_BODS]

Hi,

I understand that I could use the code below to let user add text.

pdfctrl.Inst.ExecUICmd2(pdfctrl.Inst.Str2ID("cmd.tool.addText"))

However, I would like to programmatically add text in specific location.

I have tried using FreeText to add.

Dim sInst As PDFXEdit.IPXS_Inst
sInst = CType(pdfctrl.Inst.GetExtension("PXS"), PDFXEdit.IPXS_Inst)

Dim freeTextBoxId As UInteger
freeTextBoxId = sInst.StrToAtom("FreeText")

Dim page As PDFXEdit.IPXC_Page
page = docPreview.Doc.CoreDoc.Pages(CUInt(pageNr))


It is working but the text appeared as annotation, can be resize and move which is different from the result of

pdfctrl.Inst.ExecUICmd2(pdfctrl.Inst.Str2ID("cmd.tool.addText"))

How can I achieve it ?


Thank you.
